AP Bio People Names?

<p>For the Ap Bio test, do we need to know the names of famous people (and what they did)?
Thanks</p>

<p>Bump. I was also wondering about this.</p>

<p>What does bump mean? lol. Ive been seeing it, but i have no idea what it means. Umm… i dont think so. I guess Gregor Mendel (and his peas), Watson and Crick with the double helix (who stole it from Rosalind Franklin), Hardy-Weinburg with his random equation. but i dont think it would really matter.</p>

<p>yea, I don’t think names are that important…just know Mendel’s peas, heredity, Watson and Crick DNA double helix genetics, Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, Darwin’s theory of evolution- by natural selection, random mating, mutations, etc.</p>

<p>okay. thanks
do you guys happen to know if we need to know the details of glycolysis and other processes. I mean the exact steps and enzymes used.</p>

<p>not the exact enzymes, but you should be able to describe each step and how it works, etc. use cliffs notes</p>

<p>I personally think that learning specific enzymes would be a waste of time. Just know what type and what quantity of energy aerobic respiration produces. </p>

<p>idk… i found this</p>

<p>Mendel=mendellian genetics
messelson and stahl-semi-conservative/conservative thingamabob

Darwin-theory of evolution
Michaelis-Mentis Kinetics - uh evolution stuff
Melvin Calvin- Dark Rxns of Photosynth (aka calvin cycle)
um… dang forgot most i knew a lot more for tests and other useless nonsense like APs <3</p>
